156/365 Saturday, June 5th

You "otter" be here...

(yes I made Scott pull over so I could take a picture and yes he rolled his eyes but it did give us fond memories of our last trip we took together which was to Vegas where we went on a "Dam" tour and all the "Dam" puns never got old.)

~the view from our hotel room (the patio off the back):
~ a sign that cracked me up
~ a display that made be sad and a little mad but Scott assured me he is not an Oilers fan.
~ the view from the front of our room
~ the only "glacier" I will probably ever conquer
~ a highlight of the weekend: a bubble bath (using the Karma bath bar from Lush, so yummy)in an antique claw tub, I was in NO hurry to move from here, but when I did, I snuggled into a heated bathrobe and then...
I cuddled up in front of this fire (the only thing I may love more than the mountains, is the smell of a wood burning fire) which Scott kept going for most of the weekend which I really appreciated.

did you stay at Buffalo Mtn Lodge (I think that is what it's called) up on the hill? We have stayed there several times & I love it!

Hi Lori,

It was the Buffalo Mountain Lodge. It is sort of "our place" that we will go to when we have a Banff get-away, which is not often enough! However, I love it there. It is great that it is up the hill and not in the main hustle/bustle of Banff.

Have you ever eaten at their restaurant Cilantro (located in the parking lot)? if not, you must check it out next time you go. It was fabulous.
